Alright, Lynnwood—let’s talk nails.
It’s August, the month that feels like a weird in-between. You’re still trying to squeeze the last drops out of summer, but you can already smell the pumpkin spice creeping around the corner like it owes you money. And in this oddly emotional weather limbo, there’s one thing that should not be uncertain—your nail game.
ProForm Beauty Supply is here to help you lock in your late-summer nail vibe with gel polish shades that slap, stun, and make you feel like you just got your life together (even if you haven’t washed your hair in three days—we’re not judging).
So whether you’re lounging in your favorite Lynnwood coffee shop, posting poolside selfies, or pretending your errands are a fashion runway, these are August’s best gel polish picks to keep your nails cute, fresh, and 100% summer-approved.
Why Gel Polish in August Is Basically a Necessity
Let’s be real: August is humid, sweaty, and unpredictable. You need a nail polish that can survive:
-
Your friend's inflatable pool party
-
That last-minute camping trip you said yes to but definitely didn’t prepare for
-
Reaching into your hot car and trying not to melt
-
Typing emails that say “per my last message” when you really mean “read, dummy”
Gel polish is that ride-or-die. It stays glossy, chip-free, and fresh for 2+ weeks without flinching. And with the right colors, it can carry you from poolside to pre-fall vibes without switching up your whole routine.
Let’s dive into the top gel colors for late summer that every Lynnwood baddie should have on deck.
1. Coral You Kidding Me? – The Summer Sunset Vibe
This coral gel shade is giving golden hour, fruity cocktails, and “I’ve got nowhere to be but everywhere to slay.” Coral is one of those colors that flatters every skin tone, pops on short or long nails, and makes you feel like a human version of a vacation.
💅 Pair it with: Gold nail art accents, or keep it sleek with a glossy top coat that screams, “Yeah, I moisturize.”
🛒 Grab it at ProForm Beauty Supply before everyone else realizes how good it is and it magically disappears like your left sock in the dryer.
2. Lime What? – The Unexpected Showstopper
Neon lime green in August? Oh yes. It’s bold, it’s fun, and it turns your nails into walking exclamation points. If you’re bored of pastels and neutrals, this shade is here to bring the drama without the stress.
🌟 It says: “I have opinions, and I express them with my nails.”
💡 Style Tip: Pair it with a crisp white outfit for maximum pop, or let it clash beautifully with literally everything—because confidence overrides coordination.
3. Melted Popsicle – Summer’s Final Hurrah
Think juicy raspberry or watermelon red with a slight neon kick. It’s the color equivalent of that last melting popsicle you refuse to give up, even if it’s dripping down your hand like you’re five years old again.
🎉 Perfect for: Pool parties, BBQs, or scrolling on your phone with one hand while balancing a plate of ribs with the other.
🔊 In case you forgot: ProForm Beauty Supply in Lynnwood carries an entire rainbow of bold gel shades from top brands like Valentino Beauty Pure, so you don’t have to settle for basic.
4. Dusty Lavender – Late Summer Meets Early Fall
For the gals, guys, and non-binary babes who love to ease into change, dusty lavender is where it’s at. It’s soft, cool-toned, and says, “Yeah, I’m ready for fall, but I still got one toe in the summer pool.”
🍃 Chill, chic, and completely versatile.
🧴 Pro tip: Add a matte top coat to give it a velvety finish that’s fancy without being loud—kind of like a cashmere hoodie for your nails.
5. Metallic Rose Gold – The Transitional Queen
Is it summer? Is it fall? Are we just floating in seasonal confusion like glitter in a snow globe? Yes. That’s why metallic rose gold is your best friend.
✨ It’s warm. It’s glowy. It sparkles but in an “I-read-books” kind of way.
This shade catches the light like you caught your ex stalking your Instagram stories—bright, shameless, and beautiful.
Nail Art Extras: For When You’re Feeling Fancy
Let’s be honest, sometimes you want to jazz it up. Here’s how to take your gel mani to the next level:
-
Chrome powder for that space-girl fantasy
-
Nail foil accents in gold or silver
-
Mini rhinestones for some sparkle that doesn’t scream prom night
-
Ombré brushes to blend like a pro (we got those in-store too, by the way)
🖌️ Whether you’re a nail art Picasso or just trying to draw a decent line without it looking like a seismograph, ProForm’s got the tools.

How to Make Your Gel Mani Last Through August
A few quick reminders for flawless gel that won’t ghost you after three days:
-
Prep is queen. Buff, clean, dehydrate. Your nails need to be ready to commit.
-
Thin coats, always. Don’t go globbing on product like you’re frosting a cake.
-
Cap the edges. That’s how you stop chips before they start.
-
Top coat is life. Glossy or matte, don’t skip it unless you enjoy heartbreak.
-
Cuticle oil daily. Your nail beds are thirsty. Hydrate them.
